Jennings was raised by a single mother, along with his younger brother Terrence, as his father committed suicide when Jennings was eight years old. He attended Dominguez High School in Compton and two years later he transformed to powerhouse Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia. Averaging 32.7 points and 7.5 assists in four years, he was considered as a highly successful senior, winning all the prestigious awards. The player chose to attend the University of Arizona, however, he skipped college and signed a $1.65 million net income guaranteed contract with the Italian Lega A’s Lottomatica Roma in 2008. He also signed Under Armour for $2 million, significantly increasing his net worth. As the NBA’s policy requires players to be at least 19 years old, Jennings decided that playing overseas instead of at an American college would be the best way to gain experience and make money before joining the NBA. After spending a year with the European Club he declared himself eligible for the 2009 NBA Draft and was chosen as the 10th overall pick in the first round by the Milwaukee Bucks, increasing his wealth by signing a contract worth nearly $4.5 million.

In his rookie season (2009-2010), Jennings scored 55 points in a game to break Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s 1970 rookie record, collecting the second-highest total for a player under 21 and the second-most points scored by a Milwaukee Buck. This brought a rash of attention to Jennings, but also raised high expectations. He finished the season with averages of 15.5 points, 5.7 assists and 3.4 rebounds being the only Buck player to start all 82 games and the first Eastern Conference rookie to win the award four times in one season. Jennings recorded his first ever triple double with 20 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists and was averaging 18.7 points per game during the second season (2010-2011), but due to a foot injury he missed 19 games, however he still scored a season-high 37 points against the Knicks after his comeback, although the team missed the NBA playoffs. Although the third season (2011-2012) was a successful one for the player, the Bucks missed the playoffs again. Teamed up with Monta Ellis, Jennings led the team to the playoffs in his last, fourth season (2012-2013).

In 2013, he was traded to Detroit Pistons, signing $24 million contract. In 2014 he tied the Piston’s record for most assists in a half with 16, and the next season (2014-2015) with 21, becoming the first player to record a 20-point, 20-assist game in the NBA since Steve Nash in 2009. He was ruled out for the rest of the season due to an Achilles injury, but averaged 15.4 points, 6.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 41 games. On February 16, 2016 Jennings was traded to the Orlando Magic.

In his personal life, at the age of 19 Jennings donated $50,000 to the National Italian American Organization’s (NIAF) Abruzzo Relief Fund to help L’Aquila earthquake victims and their families. He isn’t married, however, according to sources, he already has two sons with two different women.
